Re: Small example of livelock regression in garbage collector forGCJ3.3 under W
So, the only libgcj that needs to be built is by the linux->mingw
compiler, and that libgcj must be built with the correct libgcj.spec.
Everything should work fine, modulo bugs in the configury. I guess
it's just a matter of trying it.
I tried this last night and as expected
"libjava/configure.host" is not touched if I give
"--disable-libgcj" while building the cross GCJ.
So there's no libgcj.spec created that contains
the necessary flags and hence the crossed-native
libgcj is built incorrectly.
Other than enabling the libgcj build for the
cross compiler, one can overcome this by either:
a. explicitly copying a libgcj.spec from, say,
one of the crossed-native builds, into the cross
GCJ's "lib" folder.
b. adding "-fcheck-references -fuse-divide-subroutine"
to GCJCOMPILE in "libjava/Makefile.in" before
building the crossed-native GCJ.
(and possibly many other ways).
I have alerted Mohan about this and he promised
to look into this issue while making his next
build.
